Currently Russia has about 19% of Ukraine after 10 years. They've lost a lot of high ranking officials, a lot of major equipment including flagship ships and aircraft and have tanked their economy and had to sell out their assholes to China. On top of that they have lost nearly 400,000 personel and had a brain drain on their economy.
The genius minds behind Russia are very difficult to understand indeed.
Russian incompetence is alive and well, they've had to double down and triple down on this all the while losing their soft power in Europe and making shit of all their connections that they honed over the last 3 decades.
Ukraine has taken very little time in the grand scheme to come to the level of embarrassing and holding off a "world superpower"
